Vision Metron RS 60 CS Silver Edition Wheelset

The Metron RS 60 CS Silver Edition is Vision's flagship 60mm carbon wheelset, built with CeramicSpeed bearings and finished in a limited-edition silver colorway. It's designed for road racing and fast group rides where a deep-section aero wheel earns its keep on flat and rolling terrain.

What separates this wheelset from a standard Metron RS 60 is the CeramicSpeed partnership: the bearings are sourced and tuned specifically for maximum efficiency and smoothness, which is a step beyond Vision's own in-house ceramic bearings on other models in the range. Paired with a 72-tooth ratchet hub for fast engagement and hand-built aero bladed spokes, it's positioned as the top-tier version of an already race-focused wheel.

Who It's For

• Road racers and fast group riders who want a 60mm aero wheelset with the fastest available engagement and lowest bearing drag
• Riders who value a distinct finish — this is a limited silver edition, not the standard black Metron RS graphic
• Not necessary for riders who mostly climb or ride technical terrain, where a shallower rim is usually the better all-round choice

What to Look For

• Freehub compatibility: compatible with Shimano and SRAM systems — confirm which driver body ships with the wheel versus what your drivetrain needs
• Rim depth vs. use case: 60mm depth rewards flat and rolling courses more than sustained climbing, where the added weight is less advantageous
• Bearing maintenance: CeramicSpeed bearings perform best with the manufacturer's recommended service intervals, which is worth knowing going in given the investment

Key Features

Rim: A 60mm-deep, 23mm inner-width full carbon rim balances aero depth with a wide enough internal channel to support current wider road tires without compromising the wheel's shape at higher pressures.

Hub: The Vision V-1000 hub uses a 72-tooth ratchet system, giving noticeably faster engagement than a lower tooth-count pawl hub — useful when you need power down instantly out of a corner or in a sprint.

Bearings: CeramicSpeed ceramic bearings are the defining upgrade on this Silver Edition build, chosen for maximum efficiency and smoothness over Vision's standard bearing spec.

Spokes: Aero bladed carbon spokes in a 2:1 ratio (21 front / 24 rear) are hand-laced, which is part of why Vision can claim precision assembly rather than a fully automated build.

Rider Intent Summary

• Biggest strengths: CeramicSpeed bearings and a 72-tooth hub in a 60mm carbon aero rim, hand-built rather than machine-assembled
• Tradeoffs: a deep-section wheel is less ideal for sustained climbing, and the limited silver finish carries a premium over the standard graphic
• What makes it different: pairing a third-party bearing partner known specifically for drivetrain efficiency onto an in-house wheel platform is uncommon in this category

Victory's Take

We recommend the RS 60 CS Silver Edition to Victory Bicycle Studio customers racing flat-to-rolling courses who want the best bearing performance Vision offers and don't mind paying for the CeramicSpeed upgrade and the limited finish.
